Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of unisex school

While

some people consider that

students

studying in single-gender

schools

are able to perform well in their academics, many argue that co-education

school

is better for a child's social development. In

this

essay, we shall discuss some of the benefits and drawbacks of same-sex education. It is often considered by many that children will be able to focus more on their academics and career when studying in a single-sex

school

as there will be fewer distractions compared to mixed

schools

.

Students

, especially teenagers, tend to lose interest in their studies. They get attracted by the opposite sex and get stuck in early relationships. Classrooms of same-gender

students

avoid

this

. It

also

decreases gender stereotypes. Teachers are

also

able to provide proper teaching techniques as the way of learning is often quite different in boys and girls. They are

also

able to bring more discipline to their pupils.

However

, mixed

schools

are gaining a lot of popularity these days. Even though all-girls or all-boys classes create a relaxed and comfortable environment, it is different in the real world where men and women have to interact and work with each other. Since they are used to interacting only with the same gender, it creates awkwardness and people feel uncomfortable being around the other gender. It

also

creates a feeling of insecurity. In conclusion,

schools

play a key role in the social development of a child. Whether studying in a mixed

school

or a single-gender

school

, it is important to keep the

students

focused on their academics and career

while

also

developing their social skills. Institutions should conduct inter-

school

competitions and try to reduce gender-based competition.
